1, 887
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 261, 942, 502, 887 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 261, 942, 502, 887 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 261, 942, 502, 887 is 1
Given Input Data is 261, 942, 502, 887
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 261 is 3 x 3 x 29
Prime Factorization of 942 is 2 x 3 x 157
Prime Factorization of 502 is 2 x 251
Prime Factorization of 887 is 887
The above numbers do not have any common prime factor. So GCD is 1
Step1:
Let's calculate the GCD of first two numbers
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(261, 942) = 81954
GCD(261, 942) = ( 261 x 942 ) / 81954
GCD(261, 942) = 245862 / 81954
GCD(261, 942) = 3
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 3 as first number and the next as 502
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(3, 502) = 1506
GCD(3, 502) = ( 3 x 502 ) / 1506
GCD(3, 502) = 1506 / 1506
GCD(3, 502) = 1
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 887
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 887) = 887
GCD(1, 887) = ( 1 x 887 ) / 887
GCD(1, 887) = 887 / 887
GCD(1, 887) = 1
GCD of 261, 942, 502, 887 is 1
